Authors amongst the most important voices of modernism in their respective traditions, such as Virginia Woolf, Mark Twain, Franz Kafka, O. Henry, Miguel de Unamuno, Vladimir Bulgakov, and Italo Svevo, all turned to canine perspectives to discuss the human condition in the rapidly changing modern world. ER -
